AN ALMOST FORGOTTEN HYMNAL PRAYER The 3 x 9 bead ‘Angelic Trisagion’ chaplet is believed to be an ancient hymn, prayed to unite one with the 9 choirs of angels in praise to the Holy Trinity. Over the centuries, the prayers have changed some as has the music from the traditional form prayed by the Trinitarians. But you will recognize parts that are found in other devotions such as the Divine Mercy. The prayers may be prayed on the chaplet above or adapted to a standard 5 decade rosary.

TRISAGION : ‘THRICE HOLY’

The Greek phrase ‘Trisagion’ translates as ‘Thrice Holy’ as in this hymn God is described Holy in three different qualities; ‘Holy God’ (Agios o Theos). ‘Holy strong One’ (‘gios ‘schyros), ‘Holy Immortal One’ have mercy on us (‘gios ath’natos, el’ison imas). In Latin: ‘Sanctus Deus, Sanctus Fortis, Sanctus immort’lis, miser’re nobis.’
